About Hypoglycaemia
And Functional Medicine Solutions
Hypoglycemia, or low blood sugar, can cause symptoms like shakiness, dizziness, confusion, fatigue, and even loss of consciousness. Frequent hypoglycemic episodes can impair cognitive function, disrupt daily activities, and increase the risk of accidents. If untreated, chronic low blood sugar can lead to long-term damage to the brain and nervous system. The functional medicine approach addresses the root causes of hypoglycemia, such as poor diet, hormone imbalances, or insulin resistance. By creating personalized nutrition plans, focusing on balanced meals, reducing sugar intake, and addressing underlying metabolic imbalances, functional medicine helps restore stable blood sugar levels and prevent future episodes.
Blood Sugar Influences On Physical Health
Blood sugar imbalances significantly affect fatigue, sleep, and cravings, leading to potential addictions. Erratic levels cause profound fatigue and sleep disturbances, worsening energy and recovery. Additionally, they trigger cravings for sugar and carbs, risking unhealthy eating habits or addictions, highlighting the need for careful blood sugar management for overall health.
Blood Sugar Influences On Mental Health
Blood sugar imbalances can profoundly impact mental health, leading to mood swings, anxiety, and depression. Fluctuating glucose levels affect brain function, causing cognitive difficulties and emotional instability. This underscores the importance of maintaining balanced blood sugar to support not only physical well-being but also mental and emotional health.
Blood Sugar Influences On Brain Health
Blood sugar imbalances can adversely affect brain health, impairing cognitive functions, memory, and concentration. These fluctuations can lead to brain fog, increased risk of dementia, and neurological complications, emphasizing the critical role of balanced blood sugar levels in preserving neural integrity and ensuring optimal brain function over time.
